Chapter 596: Chapter 460 The Curtain Falls on Xuanyang 2 Immortal! [2nd Release, Asking for Monthly Tickets!]

Name: Black Vulture (Dharma Domain Avatar)

Age: 642426

Cultivation: Mahayana Sensing

Cultivation Technique: "Heavenly Filth Technique" (Side Door Level)

Divine Skills: Black Ice Flame (Third Realm) (Incomplete)

...

"True Immortal!"

"Mahayana Sensing!"

Chen Jichuan gazed at the towering Black Vulture Emperor, instantly understanding.

This True Immortal is merely sixty-four million years old, a relatively young age among True Immortals. Due to his Demon Dao origins and lack of foundation, his cultivation technique is at the side door level, and his Divine Skill is incomplete and mismatched.

"Initial Promotion to True Immortal."

"A side door-level cultivation technique."

"An incomplete and mismatched Divine Skill."

"And no Immortal Artifact in hand."

In the battle between two avatars and the True Immortal, Chen Jichuan had gained some insight into the Black Vulture Emperor’s abilities.

Even such a relatively weak True Immortal has left his two Perfect Combat Power avatars struggling just to defend themselves.

Chen Jichuan finally gained a clearer understanding of the strength of True Immortals.

Upper Immortal.

True Immortal.

Peak Cultivation.

Mahayana.

There is a qualitative difference between them, as vast as the gap between heaven and earth.

Fourth-order is mortal.

Fifth-order is immortal.

How could mortals ever hope to slay immortals?!

"If I am to defeat such a True Immortal, first I must wield an Immortal Artifact, and second, I must comprehend my Divine Skills to a much deeper level."

Immortal Artifact.

Divine Skills.

These are the most direct methods of enhancing combat power.

Chen Jichuan’s current ability to engage with a True Immortal relies primarily on the support of his True Sect Level "Five Five Great Expansion True Scripture." Its True Sect Level cultivation method provided him with an extremely solid foundation: a strong physical body, a powerful Primordial Spirit, and Mana whose quality was nearly on par with that of the Black Vulture Emperor. This alone granted him the qualifications to hold his ground.

Otherwise, even the strongest Divine Skills would be like rootless duckweed, dissipating at the slightest impact.

"If I were to unleash the ’Five Directions Emperor,’ things might become much easier."

However, the ’Five Directions Emperor’ is the signature technique of the "Five Five Great Expansion True Scripture." If he were to use it, Chen Jichuan’s true self, ’Zhou Yan,’ within the Daoist sects would face difficulty utilizing it in the future.

He had to keep a trump card in reserve.

For now, this suffices.

"True Immortal’s Mana is limitless, but mine isn’t lacking either!"

The more Chen Jichuan fought, the fiercer his spirit burned, his vast Mana raging like a torrent.

The ’Five Directions Emperor’ technique itself wouldn’t be unleashed, but its power could be borrowed. Through the endless cycle of the Five Elements, his energy was replenished continuously. Even in a protracted battle against a True Immortal, Chen Jichuan could wield Divine Skills tirelessly, without pause, for decades.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

The rumbling within Xuanyang Mountain was incessant.

The ’Xuanyang Two Immortals’ had been battling the Black Vulture Emperor for seven days and nights, yet there was still no sign of imminent defeat.

"I can’t take them down!"

"Troublesome!"

The Black Vulture Emperor cared little for others’ mockery, but letting these two Upper Immortals go could spell disaster if they fortuitously proved their Dao in the future. His own days would be far from peaceful.

He had to strike them down.

With this in mind.

"I’ll gamble it all!"

Gnashing his teeth, the Black Vulture Emperor raised his hand and called forth something from thin air. Suddenly, from the Black Vulture Palace, a golden light shot forward, landing in his grasp.

It was none other than a Yellow Jade Gourd.

"Immortal Artifact!"

"Unable to break the stalemate, the Black Vulture Emperor has finally resorted to using an Immortal Artifact!"

The crowd of onlookers trembled with excitement.

Immortal Artifact in hand.

Divine Skills overwhelming.

This is the true standard of a True Immortal.

On the other side.

Chen Jichuan also saw the Black Vulture Emperor’s movements, his gaze fixed on the Yellow Jade Gourd in his opponent’s hand.

[Immortal Artifact: Heavenly Filth Gourd]

[Level: First-order]

[Description: Refined by the Black Vulture Emperor. Contains billions of poisonous mists and malicious energy, unparalleled in filth and toxicity. When the gourd’s lid is removed, its contents scatter into the sky, suffusing the air with oppressive gloom and thick, malignant fog. Within the endless black smoke are countless illusions of malevolent ghosts and Yaksha. Should opponents’ minds waver even slightly, the filth will invade their spirits, leaving them unable to purge it and permanently corrupted.]

...

"Indeed, a Demon Dao Treasure!"

Chen Jichuan furrowed his brows, his heart growing vigilant.

Having been forced to use his ’Daluo Heavenly Sleeve’ to counter Immortal Artifacts during the Dayan Victory Conference to seize the ’Dayan Chessboard’ opportunity, he was now ill-suited to confront this ’Heavenly Filth Gourd.’

"This vile treasure must not be confronted head-on."

"Let’s try maneuvering around and engaging in evasive combat instead."

As his thoughts came together, Qizhenzi’s avatar immediately summoned wind and thunder to distance itself from the confrontation. Simultaneously, Dai Zong’s avatar descended onto Xuanyang Mountain and disappeared into the earth with its Earth Escape technique.

Moments later.

Dai Zong reappeared on the western side of Xuanyang Mountain, while Qizhenzi surfaced on its eastern side.

One east, one west.

Each standing on guard.

"Destroy!"

The Black Vulture Emperor glanced at Xuanyang Mountain with disfavor. With no interference from the two immortals, he grasped the Yellow Jade Gourd in one hand while pressing the other downward with a sealing motion.

Crash!

Shattering everything in its path!

The ’Small Sumeru Right and Left Nine Palace Immortal Formation’ that Chen Jichuan had painstakingly arranged within Xuanyang Mountain was instantly obliterated. In a single explosion, Xuanyang Mountain itself disintegrated into countless fragments.

The might of a True Immortal is such that even raising a hand can cause mountains to crumble and seas to overflow.

Unimaginable!

With Xuanyang Mountain destroyed.

The Black Vulture Emperor turned his gaze upon the Xuanyang Two Immortals. He frowned slightly and deliberated briefly before stepping forward, targeting Qizhenzi first. Simultaneously, he removed the Yellow Jade Gourd’s lid, whispered an incantation, and unleashed a surge of gloom and malignant fog across tens of thousands of miles.

Intent to engulf Qizhenzi.

"Escape!"

Yet Qizhenzi tread upon wind and thunder, unfazed by locked-on energies.

Bang bang bang!

Time and again, he maneuvered swiftly, evading the gourd’s filthy, malevolent mists.

"Too fast!"

The Black Vulture Emperor found himself momentarily unable to catch up, frustration gnawing at his composure.

During the chase.

The battlefield expanded steadily outward.

"This is bad!"

Amidst the spreading black fog, the meddling Demon Kings and demonic creatures spectating nearby fell into calamity.

Though the Black Vulture Emperor thick-skinned, the humiliation of being toyed with by two Upper Immortals in public gripped him. Unable to prevail swiftly, his frustration surged. Seeing these spectators enjoying the spectacle, he paid no heed to their lives now.
